Location: LEG Headquarters, Erfurt
Objective: presentation of IBA (Internationale Bauausstellung)
The meeting began at 09:30 a.m. at the LEG headquarters. The group arrived perfectly on time to start Dr Bertram Schiffers's presentation about IBA, which included some history about the institution and the projects they have developed all over Europe.
The "construction sites" of IBA, as Dr Schiffers mentioned, are: LeerGut (or in English something close to empty and good) that looks for the reprogramming of empty buildings; Land in Sicht (Land in view) aimed to multiple use of ecological landscapes designs; Landstadt für Übermorgen (Provincial town of tomorrow) looks for a better quality of life and sustainable development; Selbstverantwortungsland (own responsibility of the land) recognizes the civil society as an actor and driver of change; and finally Baukulture (building culture) that integrates the development process**.

The biggest challenges of our project were also drafted at this meeting; employment opportunities for the new migrants, education, and integration into the civil society are just some of the issues that need to be taken into consideration when coming up with ideas to attract new people into Zeulenroda-Triebes.
Key topics: Relationship between urban and rural areas in Thüringen, cooperation with different stakeholders of the society, an agro-industrial landscape and a variety of cultural activities.
